Lost Me Gained Regret

Chapter 482

She had been scraping by in the underbelly of society for over two decades, so she knew all too well what kind of person appealed to grassroots fans.

Stepping into the yard where the latest episode was being filmed, she greeted all the veterans with a warm smile. Being Bella's daughter, she was met with open arms by nearly everyone. The place was swarming with fixed cameras and producers, making Summer seem a bit out of her element, yet she managed to maintain her girl-next-door charm in front of her seniors. She even brought gifts for everyone, including the production team. It was easy to predict that once the show aired, she would be showered with praise.

It wasn't until she retreated to her room for the night, covering the camera with a piece of clothing, that her facade dropped. She quickly grabbed her phone and locked herself in the bathroom to call Mark. She was anxious to know how things were going on his end.

Mark sat in the dark, irked by the incessant ringing of his phone. But on the other end, persistence paid off as he finally answered, only to be greeted with, "Are you out of your mind?"

"Mr. Larson!"

Finally getting through to him, Summer took a deep breath, her voice tinged with desperation, "What's your plan for sorting this out?" She had been on edge all day. And still had to play her part in front of the cameras.

Mark massaged his temples, feeling the headache intensify, "Just wait a bit longer."

He had gone to Vista Town today, planning to replicate his old trick of collecting a few strands of hair from the bathroom to appease Summer and be done with it. But upon opening the door, he was met with Christine instead of Jane. All he found was Christine's hair, those chestnut waves. Unable to help himself, he asked, "Where's Jane?"

“Jane..." Christine, aware of his

feelings for Jane, stumbled over her

d

words, "She, She hasn't come back yet." Was it just a quick outing, or had she not returned all night? Before he could probe further, saw Jane and Gregory chasing each other into the house. Jane looked so Vibrant, so radiant. Mark hadn't seen her like that in a long time. The answer to the question he hadn't asked was suddenly clear.

"How much longer should we wait?"

Hearing this, Summer lost her patience. "If we keep dragging our feet, I might as well leave now before Bella finds out and comes after me!" "Try it, I dare you!"

Mark's voice was ice cold, "If you screw up my plans, I'll ruin you right now."

Truth be told, he couldn't care less if Bella exposed Summer. His concern was that Bella's suspicion could lead to Jane being recognized as her biological daughter. If thatExclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.

acknowledgment, it would be enough for Jane to marry into the Ford family. He would not allow it. As long as Jane's identity remained a secret, the Fords would never approve Gregory's marriage. With the Ford family's resources, it would only be a matter of time before Jane was crushed. That meant Jane..... would eventually be his! All he

needed was a little more time, just a few days.

Despite her fear of Mark, Summer's hand trembled. "Then... then you better come up with something fast!"

As long as she could prevent anyone

from sneaking into her room to

collect her hair, she could keep stalling. After hanging up, she installed a discreet camera in a blind spot of the surveillance system. Now, if anyone entered her room, her phone would alert her immediately!
